The Republican National Committee was held last week, and Republicans wasted no time parading two of their dimmest stars in front of an audience that loves a n*gga who can tap dance, and boy did Byron Donalds and Tim Scott not disappoint, well unless their ancestors were watching.
Daniels, one of the worst things to come out of Florida, stood poised in front of an audience that resembled his wife’s family reunion but not his own. He has the crowd’s full attention from the start, though he does not say anything particularly intellectually or even emotionally moving, the audience claps for every word. They are thoroughly entertained. Not as entertained as the one overzealous Black man in the audience, whom the camera pans to no less than three times during Donald’s speech. His suit, not big enough, but yet he still looks lost in it. His boyish face and tone combine to give the air of an 8-year-old boy giving his first Easter speech with an eloquent and smooth robotism which can only come from rehearsing in the mirror, ad nauseum. Donalds quickly launches into an attack on public schools while extolling school vouchers, the same vouchers that have been decimating poor minority public schools. Daniels, an opponent of social programs, then mentions living on public assistance in childhood. While SNAP may have very well helped to keep him alive, it failed at keeping him from thirst so strong that he is willing to sell his soul in order to quench it.
It's pretty fucking hilarious to me that Tim Scott fully debased himself as a prop for trump, only to be left WAAAAY off trump's short list for VP.

Congrats, Tim.
You played yourself. 🤡 pic.twitter.com/o8qqsjkmfe
Mouth pursed like a confused beaver, uncovering teeth that are slightly more askew than most, as if they are stealthily trying to run away from the lies, he tells himself, Scott awkwardly walks on stage, waving almost violently. He screams, “wooww, WOOOOWWW” into the Wisconsin crowd. His voice is so close to the character Goofy’s that he could do voiceover work when his political career comes to an end. The crowd receives him and his awkwardness like a parent would for each step taken with confidence by a toddler that has overcome the fear of their own instability, juxtaposed with power enough to take their first steps. Scott is a bit slower in his delivery than Donald, not as if it is on purpose, but almost like he could not find the words that had already been crafted. Through the elongated speech pattern, Scott talks about his rough upbringing and how his overworked mother taught him to reject the notion that he was a victim. With that logic, I guess his mother was just poor because of her incompetency, and there were no other factors affecting their socioeconomic status. “America is not a racist country,” he screams as the camera pans to a man in a suit designed to look like a brick wall.
Yes, you read that right, after Scott declares that America is not a racist country, the camera pans to a man dressed up like a brick wall, like a wall built to keep out Mexican immigrants.
After stating that America is not racist, he remarks that you can find racism in cities run by Democrats. Those cities just happen to be in America, where there is no racism, allegedly. He uses the southside of Chicago as an example, highlighting what he deems its failing schools. Later in his speech, Scott attempts to drum up sympathies for homeless veterans who “sleep on the streets,” forgetting that the Supreme Court just allowed homelessness to be a punishable offense mere weeks ago. He moves on to his desire for American factories to fill up the homeland, as he conveniently leaves out the story of the FoxConn factory, which involved the bulldozing of residential homes for a deal brokered by former president Trump, which he did not deliver on, in that same state the convention was held in.
In a show of being good boys’ sports, Donalds and Scott were allowed to speak at the RNC but were never in the real running for Vice President, and anyone with two full mature neurons to rub together knows that. White supremacy is not going to let a Black person that close to the helm of the ship. If more evidence is needed, then look no further than Season 1 of The Apprentice, the game show where Donald Trump was reintroduced to America as some savvy, sly, and likable businessman, even though his business was failing at the time, and he had multiple bankruptcies. The winner of the show would go on to work for Trump as his right-hand person. The final two contestants that season were John Rancic, a white cigar business owner from Chicago, and Kwame Jackson, a Harvard Business School graduate and broker at Goldman Sachs. According to former show producer Bill Pruitt, who wrote about his experience for Slate, Trump was informed that Jackson performed better on the final challenge, had more obstacles to overcome with his teammates, and handled himself well under more pressure, at which point Trump is alleged to have responded, “yeah, but I mean, would America buy a (n-word) winning?”
Even when Trump had the power to elect the best candidate, he refused because of race.
The racist slumlord Trump, the Central Park Five Trump, the Obama birther Trump, is the same Trump these professional coons expected to give them that type of access. Additionally, the attempt on Trump’s life made a successor of color even less likely, due to a greater likelihood of him needing a successor. He was not going to place a Black person a few inches to the right of the most powerful position in the free world. White supremacy does not pick a Black person to lead it. While there are Black people in power in the Republican party, there were Black overseers during slavery who were just as brutal, if not more, than their white counterparts, but that still does not mean they were viewed on par with Massa. It just meant that they were good at exacting Massa’s cruelty for him. They, too, confused eating scraps with being invited to the table, when really, they are all just competing with their oppressor to see who can hate Black people more.
He dropped a bag on the Central Park 5 in this article and was wrong and incompetent like always …..Niggas that like trump don’t like politics they just talking because its trending I’m on to you niggas BS https://t.co/6vyz6L47rO pic.twitter.com/evCKw8fZCg

The anti-DEI party was quick to show off its most prized voluntary bucks, and Amber Rose, and they all lapped up the attention. The Republican party, as it stands, is fueled by white supremacy and ardent racism, including their selective anti-immigration stances. It is important to note that Republicans do not hate immigrants, they hate non-white immigrants. If they were completely anti-immigration, then Melania Trump would be a bigger problem to them, but she, like all White Americans, is either a European immigrant or the descendant of one. Additionally, it makes the pandering of Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy that much more perplexing. Like Donalds and Scott, Haley and Ramaswamy both use their backgrounds as fodder for sympathy while erasing the particular reasons they were difficult. Donalds and Scott use their impoverished childhoods for acknowledgment of standout achievement in overcoming racism, which they also deny exists. Denying the difficulties that minorities face while using them as a foundation of their backstories is such masterful cognitive dissonance that it is enough to wonder if they truly believe it themselves.

Byron Donalds' face is priceless, not in a good way. pic.twitter.com/diZ14RrnZF
Scott, Donalds, Carson, Haley and Vivaswamy were all at least thought to be on the long-short list of VP potentials, but none of these people stood a chance. While they all collectively have stories about encountering racism, Scott recalling how he had been pulled over while driving seven times in one year, Ron DeSantis questioning Byron Donalds’ loyalty over Florida curriculum that stated slaves learned valuable skills, Haley recalling being discriminated against in her childhood because of her ethnicity, Ramaswamy alluded to his Iowa loss and subsequent drop out of the presidential race was because of racism, and Carson stating that he grew up with real systemic racism, they have all denied that racism is a problem in this country.
They have all used their platforms to receive pitiful praise for overcoming some sort of extreme obstacle (one that involved the effects of system racism) to pull themselves up by the bootstraps so that they could stand firmly enough to lick Trump’s.
The party that waves the Confederate Flag was never going to pledge its allegiance to you.
